Sometimes you have to consider the loyal opposition, even when feeling disloyal:

Rep. Davis writes below:

UPDATE: Today the Kansas House passed House Bill 2022 by a vote of 91-29, which enables employers to automatically deduct employee wages for services owed (loans, equipment, etc). This might have more merit if it didn't come at the heels of House Bill 2023, which denies payroll deduction to teachers and public employees for union dues. With these two bills, the far right says it's ok for employers to have access to payroll deduction, but it's not ok for employees to have it. The next anti-worker bill in the queue is House Bill 2085, which bans collective bargaining for teachers. I'll keep you posted on this.
